THE LITTLE EMPEROR’S LITTLE CLOTHES

Our little emperor, Appu, was enjoying his usual Sunday afternoon swim in the pool close to our apartment in Marathahalli. Err, let me correct that. Appu’s version of a swim is slightly different from the common man’s. It basically involves getting all dressed up in a teeny weeny blue swimsuit, Speedo cap to match (no less!!) and running in excited circles all around the kiddies swimming pool. All this while daddy dear, exhausted after multiple attempts at trying to get sonny boy into the water, wallows in the pool like a beached whale.

Into this tranquil scene of father-son bonding enter two little girls. One look at Appu, and they start giggling uncontrollably. And Appu, mad and confused at the cause of such hilarity, promptly jumps in to the water!!!

An hour later, Appu, all dressed up, in street clothes, emerges from the shower stall near the pool and proceeds to the play area. Only to see his little tormentors occupying the coveted swing sets. And worse, they take one look at him and start giggling again. Outraged at this injustice our little hero asks, Hey!! Why you laughing man? I am wearing clothes no?
